Planet Monsters
released on Jan 06, 2002
There is only one rule with this game - Be the last one standing no matter what! Planet Monsters must confront themselves in eight unique countries each of 5 levels. Four monsters can play at once, so arm yourself with traps, blocks, jelly guns, grenades...and a great sense of humor!

A weird mixture between Pengo and Bomberman.
Our goal is to be the last one standing in a series of arenas. We eliminate the other three players (controlled by AI in single player) while creatures roam around which will be hazardous if we get too close to them. The game rips off Pokemon in a weird way, since the enemy creatures "evolve" as we progress in each level. Each world has two creatures with their subsequent evolutions, the second fully evolved type creature turning into the boss of that world. Sounds great on paper, but aside the bosses, all enemy mobs are exactly the same just with different looks. There are so many missed opportunities to add content and extra modes. Hell, I would even have been happy with simply a bestiary. But this game has nothing going on aside the main cagnpain, which is underwhelming by itself.
Might be a fun multiplayer game, but ends up being very mediocre
